International Institute of Sports & Management Mumbai: 3 Answered Questions

Which is better for sports management, IISM or Symbiosis?

Megha Rohilla
Nikita MishraMBA Sports Management, Symbiosis International University, Poona (2019)

There are several essential factors that need to be carefully studied before enrolling for a course. Symbiosis is a better choice for sports management, being a more established and well-known institute. 

The points below are some key highlights as shared by my sister who has graduated from IISM: 

  • The materials and overviews on the IISM official website are not quite satisfactory. It is somewhat similar to that of IIPM, having no specific stress on subjects and course outcomes.
  • There are some big names on the advisory board of IISM, but it is not enough. It is important to consider whether IISM provides a recognized degree or not, which is the main required outcome of the course.
  • You should go through the placement patterns of both the institutes for the last few years, including the packages and type of jobs offered. 
  • The market credibility is also an important aspect to be assured of, which decides whether the degree certificate is worthy or not.

Considering the above factors, Symbiosis seems to be a safer option, being an institute with an established market value.
